the title killed the first twenty paragraphs, and the writing style is not thing to rave about. Only two things make this a worthwhile read: the way the climax was brought out, and the detached emotions of the narrator that allowed the shame, acceptance and silence of the father to reverberate.

The title is too literal gives away the story in the first para. as soon as kaku is mentioned. This piece can be improved with some suggestion & metaphor.

Psychologically taut, spare, well developed characters with their own silences, a building mystery, twist revelations, several levels of conflict.
Excellent work!
Excellent work!
